Go to pharmacy and get some meclazine.

I converted mine from marriage to retirement several years ago. I did it directly with immigration, no agent, and it was pretty easy - had to do the usual copy, copy, copy, etc, but not difficult. Good luck to you, the sun will shine again.

I renewed by mail in September. It took 4 weeks from the time the Embassy received my passport until my new one arrived in the mail. Based on my experience with the Thai Post delivery, if your tracking as of yesterday says it is on its way to you, it should arrive by the 7th or earlier.

I just completed it by Mail - took four weeks. I couldn’t get an appointment to do it in person, because it had to be made on line and their system wouldn’t take me to appointment calendar, kept coming back to page saying mail it in. So, I did the Mail-in process - instructions a little confusing Re the return envelope process, but it worked. I used a photocopy of my passport and visa page to check into hotels while awaiting my new passport, no problem.
